THEPAsroR I'm THE STUDY.

Lecture Before Yale Theological
school by Rev. John Hall, ID. d.
Advice to Young MtnisGers-Lecture
To-Day.
Rev. John Hall, D. D., of New York, lee
tured yesterday afternoon in the Marquand
chapel to a large audience. In addition to
the large number Of seminary students there
were many ladies and gentlemen present.
The subject was ssThe Pastor in the Study,
the Pulpit and the Parish" This DR.. Hall
divided into three parts, treating of the FIRST
yesterday. It is to be assumed that the
ministry is a body of educated men, though
there are many exceptions not to be depre-
ciated; second, it is assumed that they are
fixed and settled pastors; not stated supplies,
but pastors with q sense of definite RESPONSE
bility; third, it is assumed that he has a roof
to cover him and place which he can call
his study. Then, in the first place, let him
put up and keep the books of his academical
education; they will keep him in recollection
of what he has gone through and keep alive
sympathy with the boys and with the schools.
There will be pleasure IN keeping acquainted
with them, if it is only acquaintance with
their backs. Second, the pastor must en-
deavor to keep himself acquainted with gen.
q
minister, and does not cease from being a
man when he becomes a minister. 1t is
necessary for him to keep abreast of his peo-
pie in good literature and not become a man
of one idea. Again, he must read in the line
of travels in the West and especially in the
East. Such reading will enlarge his concep-
ton and give broader ideas of fellow men. In
more immediate connection with his
work he should read religious biography, by
which the pastor gets in sympathy with the
good elements of great natures, encourage
| ment, good suggestions as to the ways in
which good may be done, and most of all, a
right appreciation of inner spiritual life in
| work. He should study history and see how
principles work themselves out. But after
all, theology is his special and distinctive
work. He must be theologian to system
atize and arrange the truths which he pre-
sents. He must study the Bible most of all
and it will be of great value to memorlze
parts of it. DR.. Hall also gave a list of COM
mentators and books upon the topics sug-
gested, which had been of most value to him
in his experience. His illustrations of points
in question were very entertaining. The
whole lecture was given in the way character
istic of the speaker, who always gives what
is well worth hearing and following. DIR.
Hall will speak this afternoon at three O'Clock
upon the pastor in the pulpit.

The Baku and Batoum Oil Pipe.

The Russian government has Just grant
ed concession for pipe line TO connect
the Baku oil fields with the port of Batoum
on the Black sea. The concession is to
last twenty years, with the provisO that
the first line shall be completed within
three years. The government not only
guarantees no interest, but stipulutes that
the pipe line company shall not, during
the term of concession, own or have any
interest in either oil wells or oil reiineries.
Wherever the lines traverse government
lands no charge for right of way will be
made and everywhere the company will
have the same rights and privileges us are
granted to railroads. One-third of the
pipes must be constructed in Russia, un-
less such is proved TO be impossible, The
tariff for the pumpage of the oil has been
fixed at from ten to eleven copecks a
pound, equal to about one-tenth cent a
gallon.
The whole length Of the line will be 603
miles. The pipe laying will be easy al
along, except when the line crosses the
Caucasian mountains. This will be accoIn-
plished at the Suram pass, which is about
5000 feet above the sea level, by series
of pumping stations furnished with large
Worthington pumps. The gravity of the
oil itself will carry it from the summit of
the pass down to the sea level at Batoum.
1t is contemplated having the whole set of
lines completed and running inside of
three years.-Engineering and Mining

There are about 500 lawyers in the city
of St Louis. 1t would appear, though,
looking over the records of the courts,
that the legal business for 400 people
is done by about 100 men. The lawyers
who have the important cases in court
can easily be counted, and any one walk

''How do all these lawyers make n living>n
There are il the neighbOrhOod of 300
lawyers in st Louis who have apparently
no visible means of support. There are
lawyers who draw large salaries from cor
pOratiOnS who are comparatively un-
known; there are office lawyers whom no
one hears of outside the profession, though
in it they have regulations greater than
the fellows who figure i'll the newspapers.
These men are the ones who delve among
the authorities and pick ou. the fine points
of law, and who trace back cid laws and
ordinances 10 the beginning, that flaws

some lawyer with reputation is given

the bar is leading a gay life and reaping
all the honors. his eNertion being no more
than reciting a lesson he has learned. No
body ever hears of the old John Burleys.

How the Wives of the Shah Travel.
Passing Of the Procession.
When the mandate has gone forth for
the ladies to go abroad from the palace,
which they alw ,ys do with a long process
sion of coaches. mounted heralds are sent
half an hour ir advance to announce their
coming in the streets they are 10 traverse.
Great commotion Immediately ensues.
The very ours, fighting or hunting their
native reserves in the middle of the street,
scent the alarm and slink into hidden cor
ners; while every shopkeeper hastens to
close his booth and retires from the scene.
Bystanders and wayfarers take the near
est short cut that may lead them away
from these dangerous precincts, and soon
the street is entirely deserted.
a rumbling is soon heard in the dis
tance; then a squad of gholams or mounted
guards of the palace, a corps of picked
cavalry. are seen approaching Soon after
the chief eunuch, a rather pleasant looking
white man, follows, and then the line of
blue coaches filled with ladies closely
veiled Mounted eunuchs protect the last
carriage, and another squadron of cavalry
brings up the rear of the procession, but
at distance from the coaches sufficient
to prevent too close inspection of the fair
inmates.
Woe be to the luckless wight who hap
pens to be so incautious or unfortunate as
to be found in the street when the process
sion passes In former times he would
have been slain OF the spot. There is a
case on record iD which the forerunners
discovered a page asleep on a rug by the
wayside. Without so much as stopping TO
wake him they rolled him nm in the rur
tossed him into a ditch and buried him
alive. While such a terrible fate might
not perhaps await any one now who should
be caught in such a predicament, yet he
would ut least receive a kicking and
thrashing that he would remember to his
dying day. Even the sentinels posted in
the street or in palace gates must turn
face to the wall when the royal cortege
passes, and present arms from behind!
Gen. Gasteiger. an Austrian in the ser
vice of the shah, was on one occasion
unable to get away as the coaches entered
the street. Turning TO the wall he wagged
his hand at his back by way of salute.
Even the shah condeScended TO laugh
when he heard of the absurd incident,
although he shows no disposition TO relax
the very strict customs relating TO his
wives. Europeans are not exempt from
this strictness; and young foreigner,
who was detected looking IRON the roof of
his house on the royal Ladies' as they rode
by. was given twenty four hours to leave
for the frontier. His legation could afford
him no protection, as he had offended
against the most rigid laws and prejudices
of the realms. W. G. benjamin. in Inter
